How to glue wallpaper on the walls do it yourself
Let's start with the basic rules for sticking wallpaper. In order for the work to look as accurately, you need to try and prepare everything you need.
So, for work we will need materials and tools:
- wallpaper;
- glue;
- rubber roller for rolling of seams;
- a stepladder (if you gathered to glue wallpaper on the ceiling);
- plumb;
- pencil and ruler;
- acute stationery knife;
- putty knife;
- glue roller;
- capacity for glue;
- roy to remove excess glue.
Now we need to prepare the surface. If you have bought an apartment in a new building or a newly built house, the walls are likely to be porous, so it is necessary to cover them with a primer mixture. Do not forget to pause and wait for the dry wall. Now you're ready to go.
Another question is, if there are on the walls of old wallpaper or paint. Then you need to clean off the paint first, then treat the surface of a special tool, and then rinse with water means. Wait until the wall dries, to apply a layer of primer. If the walls are covered with glossy paint, it is necessary to try to clean off the paint. Arm construction hairdryer, use a stiff brush or abrasive paper.
Remove old wallpaper off the wall just enough to pry the edge of the wallpaper with a spatula and pull it toward you. If the old coating is difficult to remove from the surface, whereas in a special solution is applied to the wall (available at DIY stores) maintained a certain time and then can start the preparation of walls. Or you can do this: moisten with hot water areas where the wallpaper tightly glued, and then carefully remove the wallpaper from the wall, armed with a narrow spatula. Work carefully to avoid damaging the surface.
By the way, those areas where there are swings, chips and cracks, it is necessary to putty. It separates the main point - pasting wallpaper, but the end result will please and wallpaper will be a long time to stay on the walls. Do not forget, after finished to putty areas dry out, clean up these places sandpaper. Before you begin pasting the walls with wallpaper, make sure that the surface is smooth, clean and dry.
Preliminary points:
- Lay out all the rolls of wallpaper, designed for sticking one room. You need to compare each roll to the drawing color is different.
- Now you can prepare the adhesive. Clay is sold in dry form and it is necessary to prepare yourself. Knead the adhesive according to the rules (as instructed) and wait until it becomes homogeneous.
- Getting wallpapering. To do this, you need to arm themselves with building meter and measure the length of the wall (plinth not included).
- Next, we need to unfold a roll of wallpaper and measure the length of the paper, plus 7-10 cm reserve for the stock (it is necessarily better then cut the excess, than dokleivat wallpaper strip).
- Now otcherchivaem wallpaper using a pencil and a ruler line (you can just wrap paper) and cut with a sharp knife strip.
- If you chose the wallpaper without a picture, you can immediately prepare a few bands in order not to be distracted and proceed to the process of wallpaper paste. If you purchased the wallpaper with a pattern, then you will have to spend more time to prepare. First, we cut off the first wallpaper band from the beginning of the roll, and then we unwind the second roll of the wallpaper and select the pattern that combines the web until the pattern coincides. After you prepare a few stripes, you can start gluing wallpaper.
- Do not everyone know that it is necessary to start glue the wallpaper from the brightest area of \u200b\u200bthe room, that is, from the window. We continue the process of sticking the next strip counterclockwise. Stick the last band by the window, but from the opposite side.
Rules of cutting wallpaper
Consider all the options to do not look for answers to questions:
- We cut wallpaper without a picture - if the maximum wall height is 2 m 65 cm, then we need to cut the strips of 2 m 66-67 cm to leave a small supply. Roll over the wallpaper roll and cut off the strip of the desired length on the front side. The next strip is cut off from the same roll.
- Cutting wallpapers with a selection of a picture without offset strips. Such wallpapers are a bit more complicated. For example, if the height of your ceilings is 2 m 67 cm, you must first determine the pattern of the pattern on the canvas. We need all the sliced \u200b\u200bbands start from the same pattern. We first select one strip, and then another one to coincide the drawing, but already from the new roll. Next, we work with two rolls. The residue from each band should be minimal, since the drawing on the paper canvas is small and shifting the bands do not have to.
- Otherwise it is the case with the wallpaper on which the pattern or a large drawing should be combined. If you cut off one band of the desired length, you can find that the next bar is not suitable, so you need to retreat a step to combine both strips. For the convenience of work, you can designate two wall rolls: No. 1 - the first roll, No. 2 - the second. We start working with the first roll, after the stickers of the starting band, we cut off the next strip from the new roll (No. 2), catering in the drawing (less waste). It is more convenient to work and combine the drawing. You can on the wall so as not to get confused, designate the strip with a pencil.
How to glue wallpaper with the selection of drawing
You can stick wallpaper, nothing counting, that is, it is easy to facilitate the task. Just open a new wallpaper roll, unwind the strip, measure the desired length and glue it on the wall (or ceiling). Next, look at the drawing and select it, unwinding the started wallpaper roll. So it can be faster, but wallpaper consumption will be too large. Imagine, from each roll you will remain 1.5 M of unnecessary wallpaper. Why is such a big separation consumption?
You can do otherwise and try to choose the pattern not in place, but on the floor. To do this, we unwind both rolls and select a drawing, shifting one of the bands until the drawing coincides. The method is acceptable, just do not forget about the mirror reflection of the picture (itals not only the ceilings, but also walls). It is important to present the pattern on the wall or ceiling in the finished form, where it begins and whether it turns out beautifully.
The described methods of selection of the pattern for pasting wallpaper are suitable for all types of paper wallpapers, vinyl and fliseline base.
Glue phlizelin wallpaper with their own hands
Wallpaper on Fliselin is a modern wall finishing material with a high degree of wear resistance. Wallpapers are sold in rolls, 1 m wide. It is very convenient to stick them, because you do not need to pre-prepare the walls. Small irregularities on the surface of the surface are collected thick flieslinic wallpaper.
We will glue the wallpaper with your hands the joint into the joint, to begin with, prepare the wallpaper bands for the whole room. Since we need to docile drawing, then our task is a little more complicated. Before proceeding to cutting strips, we measure the height of the wall in several places (ideally every 30-40 cm). If there are no discrepancies, then you can proceed to cutting wallpaper of the desired length.
Have you bought a wallpaper with a large pattern? Then you need to approach the processing process with full responsibility. We look at the label: The manufacturer indicates the size of the fitting pattern. To combine the picture, you must immediately open 2 wallpaper rolls and shift the next bar for the first billet (or measure the distance specified on the label). Be careful that then you did not have to do the wallpaper at thenime (if there is not enough strip length or you incorrectly combined the cloth in the drawing).
There are certain rules that need to be followed: if the height of the ceilings is standard - 2.5 m, then the length of the bands must be with a margin - 2.88 m, then the size of the fitting will be 48 cm.
The bands can be cut directly on the floor (prepare a place in advance or bed on the floor tight polyethylene). Roll over the wallpaper roll face up to combine the drawing and cut off the band equal to 2 m 88 cm (there is already a stock). We carry the strip so that the canvas coincide and the sharp knife cut the wallpaper along the fold line. We have the first strip. Now you need to deploy a new wallpaper roll and combine the drawing. I have no rush to cut off the second strip, we move away to evaluate the visually correctness of the alignment. Everything is fine? You can cut off the strip and start climbing wallpaper.
The roll must be rolled only on the one hand, then several blanks can be made immediately.
The peculiarity of working with flieslinic wallpaper is that the glue does not need to be applied to the wallpaper, only on the wall. Armed with a roller, distribute the adhesive with a uniform layer over the wall surface, capturing a little more than 1 m, so that wallpaper joints are well glued.
After gluing the first band, the wallpaper can be cut off with a sharp knife. Try to perform this work as accurately as possible.

Glue vinyl wallpaper with their own hands
Glue vinyl wallpaper is necessary in the same way as fliseline. The only difference is the basis of vinyl wallpaper thinner than the wallpapers on Flizelin, so you need to pay more attention to the preparation of the walls.
Subtleties of the workflow:
- we make room measurements and cut the wallpaper bands, equal to the length of the wall plus a stock of 7-10 cm;
- preparing glue (for vinyl wallpaper you need to buy special glue);
- smear the foam roller with the glue on the ceiling / wall, as well as we embroider a carefully sliced \u200b\u200bwallpaper band;
- we are waiting for glue;
- armed with a building level, we make a pencil mark on the wall, so as not to go outside the line and stick exactly the strip;
- we glue the strip to the wall, thoroughly stroke the cloth to release the air. We pass throughout the surface of the glued web with a rubber roller to drive out the air: from the middle to the edges, from the middle up and down;
- the next strip is glusted in the same way, the joint in the joint;
- if you hurried and pasted the canvas, and then noticed that air bubbles were formed under the wallpaper, it is necessary to go through this place with a rubber roller. If it does not help, then it is necessary to pierce the sink of the needle, and then slow down the glue there (we gain in the syringe). It will only remain smooth the surface and ensure that the wallpaper is well glued.
What wallpaper is easiest to glue? You will not find an unequivocal answer to this question, many masters stop at the choice of flieslinic wallpaper, some like the Soviet version - simple paper, and there are people who want to make a highlight and highlight a separate area and stick other wallpapers. For example, wallpapers on an adhesive basis or photo wallpaper.
With the help of photo wallpaper, you can decorate any room. Due to the fact that glue composition is applied to the opposite side of the web, it is a pleasure to work with such material. No need to prepare glue and mess with tassels and rollers, you can make a highlight to the interior of the room in just a few hours.
Adhesive-based wallpaper can be of different sizes, monophonic and with a pattern. To combine the pattern on the wall, you need to be extremely attentive and neat, because if you disconnect the protective film and glue the web to the wall, and then detect that the drawing is not combined, it will be very difficult to spare the band.
This type of finishing material has a lot of advantages: durability, huge selection, ease of sticking. You can change the interior in the children's room or the bedroom every six months.
